If you are having trouble connecting to Remote Web Workplace in Small Business Server 2003, try this. If you get a message in the Internet Explorer information bar that it is unable to install an ActiveX control, and you've tried resetting the security zone in IE, try this:
run regedit:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Ext \ Settings
expand Settings and delete the key {7584c670-2274-4efb-b00b-d6aaba6d3850}

Microsoft Word 2007 can publish to a blog. It's pretty cool. In Drupal, activate the Blog-API module. In Word, click the round button in the corner, then choose Publish, Blog. The URL is http://www.yourwebsite.com/drupal/xmlrpc.php

In Oracle, the describe command shows the metadata for a table in your SQL database. The equivalent command in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (and 2008, probably) is sp_columns. Try using sp_columns
to find out the data type of each column, along with other useful information about your tables.

When Outlook is opened, it will not connect to the Exchange server. Instead, Outlook says "disconnected" in the lower right corner, and clicking "Send/Receive" shows error 0x8004011D in the Outlook Send/Receive window. One possible cause of this is if your Exchange/IIS server (both of mine are on the same machine) is using a self-signed SSL certificate.

Sometimes, a photo editing program (I use Corel's Paint Shop Pro) can not remove all of the red around a person's eye with the built-in red eye remover tool. You may end up with a red ring around the pupil of the eye. Here's how to remove all of the red eye.
Use the automatic tool to remove what you can. Then, switch to the pain brush tool, and set the blend mode to color. Use the eyedropper tool on the good, dark part of the eye, then use a small brush size and paint around the edge of the eye. Your eyes are beautiful! :)

This error may be caused because of insufficient permissions to open the data source. Check the properties of the data source in the Reporting Services web interface. If it is set to use Windows Authentication, it is possible that the user does not have sufficient privileges to open the data source.
To resolve this problem, either grant the users permission to connect to the data source, or set a default username and password to connect to the data source.
This is the error that you may see:
